Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall's standing with the team for the upcoming season may be in question, but new head coach John Fox was non-committal about Marshall when asked Wednesday, Feb. 18.

Fantasy Tip: Marshall may be losing a step or two as he's on the wrong side of 30. However, injuries likely were a big reason for his disappointing 2014 season. he can easily bounce back and be a solid midrange WR1 in 2015, no matter where he's playing.

Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall may not return to the team in 2015, in the opinion of ESPNChicago.com's Michael C. Wright. The thinking is that Marshall and WR Alshon Jeffery are too similar of receivers, and the team needs more diversity at the position. Wright also wrote that this was strictly a possibility, and he expects Marshall to be on the team in 2015.

Fantasy Tip: Marshall had a slew of injuries in '14, and he'll be 31 in March. Will he be a bounce-back candidate or is this the beginning of his decline? We think he'll bounce back, but his 100-1,295-12 days may be over. Look for him as a low-end WR1 or an elite WR2 in traditional leagues next season.

Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall recently said he would have buyer's remorse regarding the team paying QB Jay Cutler a seven-year, $126 deal. However, Marshall did add that the blame for the Bears' offensive struggles doesn't solely lie on Cutler's shoulders. "It doesn't always fall on him. I guess that's why those guys are the highest paid players out there. Because when you win and everything is going good, they get all the glory. And when it's bad, they take more [blame] than what they should take.

Fantasy Tip: Despite Cutler's on-field shortcomings, he does have a superb matchup versus the New Orleans Saints this week. He'll cost $6,300 on FantasyScore if you want to plug him in your lineups. Marquess Wilson, Marshall's replacement, is also a nice option at just $3,000.

Fantasy Tip: Marshall has suffered through the worst season since his rookie year, and while he is out for the year, the fantasy value of all Chicago's remaining offensive weapons is likely to continue to fluctuate over the final weeks as the Bears continue to play inconsistent football.

Updating a previous report, Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall (ribs, lung) will miss the rest of the season after breaking two ribs and suffering a collapsed lung in Week 14 Thursday, Dec. 4. Marshall remains in a hospital Friday, Dec. 5.

Fantasy Tip: Alshon Jeffery and Martellus Bennett will benefit generously in the final four games of the season without Marshall. Marquess Wilson is expected to fill in for Marshall, but he's a flier in deep leagues and a desperation FantasyScore play moving forward.

Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall (ribs) suffered two broken ribs in Week 14 Thursday, Dec. 4, and he also injured his lung. Marshall remains in the hospital, and he'll at least miss the team's Week 15 game against the New Orleans Saints, and possibly more.

Fantasy Tip: It's a tough break for those relying on Marshall in the fantasy playoffs. You can forget about him for a while at FantasyScore, as well. This will boost the values of Alshon Jeffery and Martellus Bennett significantly, although Jay Cutler takes a hit in what has already been a very inconsistent season for him. Take a peak at Marquess Wilson in very deep leagues.

Updating previous reports, Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall (ribs) may have suffered broken ribs Thursday, Dec. 4, and is having his spleen examined as well. His season is in doubt.

Fantasy Tip: Martellus Bennett had a huge night with Marshall out with 12-84-1 in Week 14. He would likely continue to see increased targets with Marshall out. Joshua Morgan and Marquess Wilson could also see extended action.
